Encore Boy |Cornetist Last evening, with Dr. W, H. Gif- ford as master of ceremonies, the Oshawa Regimental and Civic Band presented its weekly concert in the McLaughlin Band Shell. Miss Hazel Rundle was guest soloist with Wal- ter Jackson accompanying her at the piano. After the national anthem, Dr. Gifford announced "The Standard of St. George," by K. J. Alford. It was followed by a J. A. Greenwood waltz, "Love's Greeting." "The Phantom Brigade" was described by Dr. Gifford. "The story is of a gen- eral retired from active service," he explained, "who dies with some brother officers at the club. A con- versation arises concerning an im- portant battle in which they Al took part. After dinner the gener: falls agleep in an armchair and in & dream he sees the brigade sweep past him again with 'the band at their head, as they did on the day he led them to victory." One could see 'the musical portrayal. Miss © Hazel Rundle, .from the choir of King Street United Church, sang "Swing Low, Swéet Chariot" and "Forgotten" in a clear and pleasing tone. The band played variations on their regimental march, which is a favorite tune of the regular audience. .

Foreign Affairs Analyst Eighteen months ago the Leag of Nations was lald at rest in its $10,000,000 marble mausoleum on the shore of Lake Geneva, and man's first attempt to maintain | peace by means of a world-wide | failure. But that wasn't the death of hope. The United Nations, brand new and full of grand resolutions for the welfare of humanity, already had swung into action. At long last we were to have peace. The Big Five-- Russia, Britain, Prance, China, America--brothers-in-arms who had bled together in the Hitleridn up- heaval, sat down in brotherhood, surrounded by the smaller states which -looked ta the powers for guidance. " : Ask Revamping Last week ten United States Sen. ators sponsored a resolution which proposed that the .United Nations be revamped. Senator Ferguson, who offered the measure, told reporters that he and others were coming gradually to the conclusion that, if Russia failed to co-operate, it might necessary to reorganize the United Nations without the Soviets. Th significance of this move is that the United Nations thus far has failed in the mali, and it has failed because it hasn't lived up to its name, It is disunited--split after the fashion of unhappy Europe, with Russia and her satellites on the one side and the democracies on the other. The will of the great majarity has, in almost every im. portant instance, been nullified by Russia's employment of a veto power which had been agcorded in the charter to each of the Big Five. It was tacitly understood Gromyko thas used the veto with ruthless abandon, thus emasculating the 'peace organization. *. 7 'Russian Obstruction Gradually it has become evident that this' Russian obstruction is a organization was written off as a' U.N. Split Into Camps Cannot Exist, Claim plece off the same cloth as Molo- lations at large. Notable examples tov's tactics in infernational re. Ug | have been Moscow's methods of securing - domination of Eastern Europé, the disruption of the con- ference to make a German peace treaty, and the refusal to join in & unified program for the rehabili- tation of Europe. Very gradually, too, it has be. come clear that these tactics have been part of the general strategy of world revolution for thé spread of communism. It has taken a long time for this truth to soak home with a lot of folk who couldn't bring themselves to believe that such a thing could happen. But happen it has, and observers have no doubt that the campaign will continue just so long as Moscow is able to keep the wheels turning. Scrap U.N.? Thus we have arrived at the point where important people--and some of them are attached to the United Nations--are wondering if, after all, the U.N. must be scrapped so that a fresh start can be made. That velo power must be controlled so that it can't be used as a bludgeon for obstruction. Unfortunately there is no way of amending the charter, because the present veto power could be used against amendment, and Russia might be expected to employ it. It's safe to say that most mem. bers of the U.N. are appalled at any | idea of throwing over the present organization and creating another, which likely would be without the Russian bloc, thus widening the breach which already exists. They still hope that if the Western de- mocracies take a firm stand on vital matters, Russia will see the folly of her present course, especial. ly when it becomes clear that the United States is not headed for a tremendous economic collapse, as Moscow has been claiming. One thing is certain, however, the U.N. can't long continue as a house divided against itself.

Miss Rundle, with Mr, Jackson at the POACHERS SNEER AT MUSKIE LAWS SPEAR HUNDREDS Ten well-known outdoors writ- ers are writing a series of articles for The Canadian Press on con- servation of wild life. Their re- views cover the problems in this important field and steps towards solution by governments, spors- men's groups and tourist organ- izations from coast to coast. By PETE MocGILLEN (Peterborough Examiner) Conservation of fish and game is a battle that never ends. It's a struggle of all lovers of the Great Outdoors against the forces of greed, selfishness and those who put the dollar sign above all else. Sportsmen would perpetuate for future generations this great heri- tage, but the poachers, racketeers and money-grabbers live for today and sneer at game laws and sports- manship. Across Canada the natural re- sources of the forest and stream have suffered as civilization advanc- ed, Today, virgin fishing and hunt- ing is pretty much a myth, with piano, sang "Mother Machree" to an impressive round of applause and "When You Come Home" equal- ly as well. The enunciation in Miss | Rundle's renditions is so clear that | the story in her songs is easily un- | derstood. The band played "Sweethearts of | Yesterday" as a dedication to Osh- awa's older citizens who attend the | concerts regularly. Included in the | selection were: "Sweet Genevieve," | "Darling Clementine" and "Sweet | Rosie O'Grady." A stirring naval march entitled "The Middy," was followed by a hymn tune and "John Peel," after the master of cere- monies had repeated his good wishes to the band on behalf of the people of the city. . airplanes landing sportsmen at any spot they desire. In every province far-seeing sportsmen and resort men have taken up the cry of con= servation and demands on govern- ments have become more insistent. In Ontario, the muskellunge holds the spotlight. Indigenous to On- tario, and parts of the lower St. Lawrence, in all Canada the "mus- kie" is a magic word to fishermen. It conjures a picture of a stream- lined, dynamite-laden fish, the aris- tocrat of fresh-water battlers. A member of the pike family, muskies grow to 68 pounds, with 20 pounders being common. They spawn soon after ice leaves the lakes but, unlike the bass family, do not remain to guard the spawn. In two weeks or 'more the hatch, and the fry grows into fingerling. At this stage they | o are carnivorous and desert minute marine life for the more gubstan- tial food--fish. Depending on the amount of food available, a muskie will grow from 9 to 13 inches in length from April to October. In five years the fish should be 30 | inches long, or legal size. Department of Lands and For- ests, charged with - enforcing fish and game regulations, as well as restocking' of lakes, has launched a long-range plan to protect this fish. Two years ago, the size limit was raised from 24 inches to 30 inches so that the fish would have spawned once before becoming legal size. Fish are stripped and the spawn hatched in Deer~ Lake™hatchery, then distributed as fingerling to countless lakes. The Government has realized the muskie is a goose that lays golden eggs for Ontario, by sky-rocketing tourist revenue. More game wardens are to be added, sportsmen want more severe penalties, but the slaughter of these fish goes on. In the spawning sea- son, poachers armed with spears [ kill hundreds of muskies as they move in the shallow water. Largest specimens are caught in the Lake of the Woods district, and in Georgian Bay. The greater num- |ber are taken in the Kawartha MORE FOWL FOR CANADA HUNTERS . Canada's 1947 wild-fowl regula. tions, recently announced, are com. plicated and diversified, but even a casual examination of them dis- closes that hunters in this dominion will have a decided edge over Nim. rods below the border. The duck limit throughout Canada will be seven, with possession of 14, as com. pared with the States' dally quota of four and possession limit of eight. « Our provinces are divided into various zones, with varying regula- tions for each section, and the sea- sons differ in each zone, ranging from about a month to consider. ably longer. Nowhere in the States may a hunter take more than two anada geese a day, and that only applies in Washington, Oregon and California. Elsewhere the Canada goose limit is only one bird, though other species of geese may bring the daily bag to four except in the west coast states, where the maximum is five. In Manitoba three Canada geese may be taken in=a day and the pos- session limit is six, while in Sas- katchewan the daily limit for geese is five and the possession limit 10. Canada's season limit for ducks varies from 25 to 56, according to the province, or section of the province, in which you hunt. In the States no season t is specified ~ Lakes and Trent waterway. The lower St. Lawrence and rivers feed- ing into Lake Ontario from the east yield many too. Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ohio and New York are concentrating on propagating these fighting fish, which is also native to the waters of these states, but still Ontario leads, not only in 'the number caught but in size. . But the handwriting is on the wall. The carrier pigeon was ex- terminated by men insane win greed. It could "~pven very easily to the muskellunge. : by 1947 MONARCH Sedan 1946 PONTIAC Deluxe | | 1946 PONTIAC Special 1941 MERCURY Deluxe You Can BUY for CASH or TERMS! 1947 PLYMOUTH Special Deluxe Coach 1947 PONTIAC Club Convertible 1946 DODGE Special Deluxe Sedan 1941 MERCURY Club Convertible BE «++ FOR Ee See These "GRAND BUYS" Now on Display! 1941 1940 1939 1939 1937 1936 1936 1936 Opera Coupe Deluxe Sedan Sedan - NNET MOTORS " T CHRYSLER Fluid Drive Sedan BUICK Super Sedan DODGE Deluxe Coach CHEVROLET Deluxe Coach CADILLAC Limousine (Like New) BUICK Special Sedan DODGE Sedan PLYMOUTH Deluxe Coach MANY OTHER MODELS TO CHOOSE FROM OR CARS WE PAY IMMEDIATE CASH AND HIGHEST PRICES!
